Investigations are currently ongoing and we hope the Philippine government will really do their best with this. If proven guilty, then Melirose’ employer deserves to get arrested and be punished for the heinous act. No OFW deserves to be abused by anyone.
We here at RachFeed are all praying for Mel’s speedy recovery.
